Taschenbuch. Condition: Neu. Neuware - 'Ambition' is a compelling novel that explores the intricate intersection of professional ethics and social climbing in early twentieth-century America. Written by Arthur Train, a lawyer and author renowned for his legal fiction, the story centers on Simon Lowrie, a gifted young attorney whose career is marked by a deep commitment to the integrity of the law. However, his life takes a complex turn when he is drawn into the orbit of high society, facing the pressures of wealth, status, and the expectations of those closest to him.As Lowrie navigates the high-stakes world of New York legal practice, 'Ambition' delves into the internal conflict between personal ideals and the seductive lure of prestige.
